Changed Title from “twitter.com Typed tweet not visible” to “Textarea.scrollHeight maxes out to the textarea height if there is no content, other browsers ensure one text line --- twitter.com Typed tweet not visible”

Twitter code relies on a strange feature where scrollHeight still returns the height of a text line even when an empy <textarea> collapses to a height of 0px. Edge non-interoperably returns a 0px scroll height in that case since the entire textbox is 0px tall and there is no content in it.

The fix for them would be to use a non-empty value in their one-line-height-guessing code.
